where it failed was reported. Such medi-

WONDERFUL POPULARITY OF
THE RENOWNED MEDICINE.
The Greatest Curative Success of
the Age-A Voice From the
People.

No medicine introduced to the public
has ever met with the success accorded
to Hop .Bitters. It stand to-day, the
best known curative article in the world.
Its marvellous Ienown is not due to the
advertising it has received. It is fam
Gus by reason of its inherent virtues. It
does all that it claimed lor it. It is the
most powerful. speedy and effective
agent known for the building up of
debilitated systems. The following wit
nesses are offered to prove this:
What 1t Did for an Old Lady.
Coshocton Station, N. Y, Dec. 49,. 1884.
GENTS: A number of people had been
using your Bitters here, and with
marked effect. In fact, one case,
lady OF over seventy years, had been
sick for years, and for the past ten
years have known her she has not
been able to be around half the time.
About six months ago she get so feeble
she was helpless. Her old remedies, or
physicians, being of no avail, / sent to
Detroit. forty-fve miles, and got q
bottle of Hop Bitters 1t had such a
very beneficial effect on her that one
bottle improved her so she was able to
dress herself and walk about the house.
When she had taken the second bottle
she was able to take care OF her own
room and walk out to her neighbor's
and has improved all the time since.
Ny wife and children also have derived
great benefit from their use.

An Enthusiastic Endorsement.

GoRHAN, n. H., July Is, 1886.
gents Whoever you are, 1 don't
know, but thank the Lord and feel
grateful to you to know that in this
world of adulterated medicines there is
one compound that proves and does all
it advertises to do, and more. Four
years ago, had slight shock of palsy
which unnerved me to such an extent
that the least excitement would make
me shake like the ague. Last May
was induced to try Hop Bitters. l
used one bottle, but did not see any
change; another did so change my
nerves that they are now as steady as
they ever were. Il used to take both
hands to write. but now my good right
hand writes this. Now, if you continue
to manufacture as honest and good an
article as you do, you will accumulate
an honest fortune, and confer the great
est blessing on your fellow-men that
was ever conferred on mankind.

A Husbands Testimony:

My wife was troubled for years with
blotches, moth patches and pimples on
her face, which nearly annoyed the life
out of her. She spent many dollars on
the thousand infallihle GU cures, with
nothing but injurious effects. 4 lady
friend. of Syracuse, n. Y, who had had
similar experience and had been cured
with Hop Bitters, induced her to try it.
One bottle has made her face as smooth,
fair and soft as ohild's and given her
such health that it seems almost a
miracle.

DECEPTION In FOOD.
How Lard, Spices and Other Food Art
ticles Are Adulterated.

HOW LarU, spices ana other Food Artl.
ticles Are Adulterated.
Food adulteration still goes on. 1t
was disclosed by Mr.. Armour the Chi
cago lard and pork packer, not long
ago, that millions of gallons of cotton
seed oil are used for adulterating lard.
1t is claimed by the manufacturers that
the oil has no suspicion of disease about
it and that it is perfectly wholesome. A
large portion of the solve oil'' con-
sumed in this country also, is the oil of
cotton seed. 1t is sent in large quanti-
ties to England and Germany where it
enters into lardine, butterne and olive
oil, the same as on this side of the
water. Holland imports great quanti-
ties of it to make Dutch cheese. One
oil refinery last year, sold four thousand
barrels of the oil to preserve sardines.
and the "sardines'' were not sardines
at all, but some other kind of fish caught
off the coast of Maine. Soap is made
by the thousand boxes in Chicago with
the same base. Along with all this is
the assertion that the industry is as yet
in its infancy; there is no telling how
many food products it will enter speed
lily, nor how largely.
The investigation of the chemists Of
the National Department of Agricnl-
ture. recently completed, show that no
food is so much adulterated as spices.
Of twenty samples of ground cloves ex-
amined only two were pure. The others
had suffered the extraction of their es-
sential oils and had been polluted by
the addition of Glove stems, allspice and
husks OF various kinds. OF eight SAM
pies of cayenne pepper only one was
pure. Of ten samples of mustard none
was pure, though several had only suf-
fcred the loss of their fixed oil; the
others contained quantities of wheat
flour, the spurious matter being in
some cases thirds of the compound.
This made it necessary to add tumeric
acid (harmless) to restore the mustard
color. Ten samples of allspice were
examined, eight of which We're pure.
-Four samples of cassia were all pure.
Of ten samples of ginger, four were
pure. Only one out of thirteen samples
of black pepper was found to be what
it purported to be. A specimen sent
from Baltimore to man who had an
army contract was almost entirely
spurious. Cayenne pepper, black pep
per. husks and mustard hulls were
used to give flavor and pungency whilo
''body" was supplied by ground beans
and rice, and color by charcoal. Two
samples of white pepper out of five
were pure, two samples of mace out of
five We're pure, and of three samples of
nutmeg examined all were pure. A

FUNERAL EXPENSES.
A Clerical Society for the Promotion of
Burial Reform.


The Episcopal clergymen of New
York, under the advice of Bishop Pot
ter, have organized an association for
the promotion of burial reform. Tho
first purpose is to do away with the ex-
travagance of funeral expenditures.
Most burials are unnecessarily expen-
sive, by reason of costly burial caskets.
and numerous carriages and people go
to an expenditure which their means do
not justify. Besides. there are sanitary
considerations, such. as are leading to
the growth of the cremation sentiment.
One of the aims of the new association
will be to abolish the use of close
cotfins and metallic burial cases, and
the substitution of wicker-basket or
paper-mache coverings, so that ''dust
to dust" will have u literal and whole
some meaning.
Bishop Potter made the following re-
marks after the various points had
been discussed at the first meeting: II
am in entire sympathy with this move-
ment, and it will receive my hearty and
active cooperation. trust the organ
ization will be SO formed as to include
representatives of all religious de-
nominations, to the end that its work
may be made as effective and far-reach-
ing MS possible. 1t will be necessary to
bear in mind that at every step the Or
ganization will be fought by powerful
combinations of tradesmcn, whose in
comes this movement will tend to
diminish, and whose hostility, there
fore, may be confidently predicted. 1t
is my belief that the methods of inter-
mont ut present in vogue are vicious,
and that the highest type of Christian
burial will only be attained when the
administration of cemeteries is placed
entirely in the hands of the church. -

microscopic writers who crowd twenty

figures will give you an idea of tho

average ton thousand words week.
His pen will travel fifty-two miles a

frequently takes down forty thousand

transcribes part of his notes at night,
